The gun with unchoked barrels for shooting ball ammunition was named the "Ubique" and this gun is marked accordingly. James Tolley died in 1916, and the firm was bought by Holloway & Naughton about 1919 as Tolley was recorded at Vesey Street where Holloway & Naughton occupied 10, 12 and 14 Vesey Street at about that time. In 1955 guns were no longer made under the J & W Tolley name. From 1932 to 1939 10 Vesey Street was occupied by R B Rodda & Co. The Holloway & Naughton name has been respected in British gunmaking since the early 19th century. During WWII the factory was destroyed in a bombing raid on Birmingham, all plans, blueprints, machinery and records were lost. In the early 1990’s, Andrew Harvison brought back this established name; they make a very nice O/U along with some nice SxS game guns. Check them out at hollowaynaughton.co.uk
